Decode inline quoted-printable value.

The purpose of this sub-module is to decode/encode inline quoted-printable data described by RFC2047. Header of an email can not emit in anyway (before RFC6532) bytes encoded into 8 bits. To be able to use an encoding such as latin1 or UTF-8, we can use an inlined quoted-printable text.

type decoder

The type for decoders.

type decode = [

| `Await
| `End
| `Char of char
| `Malformed of string

]

val src : decoder -> Bytes.t -> int -> int -> unit

src d s j l provides d with l bytes to read, starting at j in s. This byte range is read by calls to decode with d until `Await is returned. To signal the end of input, call the function with l = 0.

val decoder : src -> decoder

decoder src is a decoder that inputs from src.

val decode : decoder -> decode

decode d is:

`Await if d has a `Manual input source and awaits for more input. The client must use src to provide it.
`End if the end of input was reached.
`Malformed bytes if the bytes sequence is malformed according to the decoded quoted-printable encoding scheme. If you are interested in a best-effort decoding you can still continue to decode after an error until the decode synchronizes again on valid bytes.
`Data data if a data sequence value was decoded.
`Line line if a line sequence value plus a line-break was decoded.

Note. Repeated invocation always eventually returns `End, even in case of errors.

val decoder_byte_count : decoder -> int

decoder_byte_count d is the number of characters already decoded on d (included malformed ones). This is the last decode's end output offset counting from beginning of the stream.

val decoder_src : decoder -> src

decoder_src d is d's input source.

type encode = [

| `Await
| `End
| `Char of char

]

type encoder

The type for encoders.

val encoder : dst -> encoder

encoder dst is an encoder that outputs to dst.

val encode : encoder -> encode -> [ `Ok | `Partial ]

encode encoder is:

`Partial iff e has a `Manual destination and needs more output storage. The client must use dst to provide a new buffer and then call encode with `Await until `Ok is returned.
`Ok when the encoder is ready to encode a new `Char, `Line_break or `End

For `Manual destination, encoding `End always return `Partial, the client should continue as usual with `Await until `Ok is returned at which point dst_rem encoder is guaranteed to be the sode of the last provided buffer (i.e. nothing was written).

Raises. Invalid_argument if a `Char, `Line_break or `End is encoded after a `Partial encode.

val encoder_dst : encoder -> dst

encoder_dst encoder is encoder's output destination.

val dst : encoder -> Bytes.t -> int -> int -> unit

dst e s j l provides e with l bytes to write, starting at j in s. This byte range is written by calls to encode with e until `Partial is returned. Use dst_rem to know the remaining number of non-written free bytes in s.

val dst_rem : encoder -> int

dst_rem e is the remaining number of non-written, free bytes in the last buffer provided with dst.
